Built from high-speed steel (HSS) with a bright, uncoated finish, this tap cuts 6-48 UNS threads in a right-hand direction. It features 3 flutes and a plug chamfer, which distributes cutting load across several leading threads for controlled entry and chip management. At 2 inches overall length, it is sized for use with standard tap handles, T-handles, or machine tapping operations. Machinists, maintenance technicians, and tool-and-die professionals use this tap for threading small-diameter fastener holes in light fabrication and repair work.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis tap is suited for tapping 6-48 UNS threads in ferrous and non-ferrous materials including mild steel, aluminum, brass, and plastics. The plug chamfer style makes it appropriate for through-hole applications or blind holes where adequate thread relief exists below the required thread depth. It performs well in manual tapping and low-speed machine tapping setups. The H2 thread limit provides a controlled tolerance for standard fits with mating 6-48 UNS fasteners, making it a reliable choice for precision repair, instrument assembly, and light manufacturing tasks.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e6-48 UNS thread form for small-diameter precision threading applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlug chamfer distributes load across multiple leading threads for smooth entry\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3-flute geometry supports chip clearance in through-hole and open blind-hole work\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eH2 thread limit provides controlled tolerance for standard thread fits\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh-speed steel construction resists wear across a broad range of workpiece materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBright uncoated finish suits general-purpose use without coolant-through requirement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general-purpose replacement or addition for any shop requiring 6-48 UNS straight flute plug taps in high-speed steel.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis tap is installed by machinists and maintenance technicians using standard tap handles, tap wrenches, or machine tapping fixtures. Secure the workpiece firmly and align the tap perpendicular to the hole before engagement to avoid thread distortion or tap breakage. Apply appropriate cutting fluid for the workpiece material to extend tool life and improve thread finish. For machine tapping, use a tapping attachment with torque limiting to prevent overloading the small-diameter tap.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6-48\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: UNS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChamfer Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Plug\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Limit\u003c\/strong\u003e: H2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: High-Speed Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bright\/Uncoated\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.17 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: VALUE COLLECTION\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: JY4836482\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51709057499442,"sku":"JY4836482","price":62.65,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/f5a6237570c45a8fb52444915f11139b.jpg?v=1788450605","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-jy4836482-straight-flute-tap-6-48-uns","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
